LPI .......2007-05-30
The book arrived in great condition and the information is useful towards my dissertation research.
Excellent coaching tool Kudos to Kouzes!.......2006-03-26
I use this product one of the main tools for coaching. The LPI is a fantastic diagnositic tool. What is most important is that it describes the functional behaviors behind general leadership categories; such as Inspiring a Shared Vision and Modeling the Way. Some people have a difficult time getting a handle on what those general categories look like. The LPI helps them with specific behaviors from which they can build actionable steps to achieve their goals. Kudos to Kouzes!
Great tool for evaluating yourself.......2005-09-01
My book only came with the self evaluation and was missing the peer evaluation so make sure your packet includes both. If you go through this and have a subjective way of having the people you manage turn them you can really learn allot about yourself and improve your leadership abilities.

Book.......2007-09-15
I got it just when they said it and just like they said it. PERFECT!!

Ideal for orienting readers to the Five Practices® model at the beginning of a workshop or coaching session, the piece contains two Leadership Challenge case studies, a short description of the Five Practices®, a section on "Learning to Lead", and background information on the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI).
Customer Reviews:
A classic book on leadership.......2007-09-25
There is not much worthwhile to say about leadership that is not said in this book. One of the great things about this book is that the recommendations made are based not just on opinion and anecdotes but upon extensive objective findings from surveys and research. Those who have already read a great deal about leadership may find some parts of the book too repetitive of other material. However, for the novice reader or those who are just getting started, this book is a wonderful place to start. In my opinion, this book has to be considered a classic in the field of leadership.
What a surprise!.......2006-09-27
When I opened this order, I was totally surprised. I thought someone had made a mistake and sent me some advertising literature. I have actually received bigger and better "free" info from advertisers. This is listed as a 16 page book, but is just a 12 page brochure. Don't waste your money making the writers of this book(?) richer!
Duh!.......2005-09-24
This was possibly the worst use of my money, EVER. Learned nothing new. Well, maybe I did learn that I'm already as good a leader as some of my peers, and a better leader than most since I found the "practices" in this short pamphlet (can hardly call it a book) to be no more than common sense.
Totally overpriced and overwhelmingly silly..........2002-01-29
This is a 12-page promotional piece for Kouzes' and Posner's books and Leadership Practices Inventory, a 30-item questionnaire about leadership, written in the breathy style of business-school literature. A true non-value. If you are interested in their work, buy The leadership Challenge (Jossey-Bass, 1997), which has the same editorial tone but at least says something.
CLEAR - CONCISE - COMPLETE.......2000-06-10
Kouzes and Posner have once again struck gold in The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership: When Leaders Are At Their Best. Good things DO come in small packages; this 12 page synopsis speaks directly to the soul of leadership. As an Operations Commander of a mid-size Police Department, I am utilizing the authors' suggestions to change Law Enforcement not only in my agency, but in the larger community we serve. What an AWESOME gift these guys have given to all of us!
